Genuine NOS Wing Mirrors

Yes,

Good idea! I'll whip my Marmitee ones off tomorrow when I visit him in storage and compare them. I Think the problem with mine is that the nut is cross threaded and won't tighten up against the washer to lock them.

I'll post a pic for comparison if it helps anyone? For reference they are the cheapest JK ones...

Cheers

 

Hi All,

For reference here is the pictures of my ropey ones, just removed them. The thread is tiny and the casting does look awful compared to the others. I am going to email a stockist of the current repro Hagus mirror to see if they can confirm that the eBay ones aren't simply mis-sold duplicates of these!

PS Is it normal for the captive nut to move a bit?

Cheers

 

Thanks for that,

Mine are Cali Import doors, not sure of year? Sounds like a little movement is to be expected then!

Cheers

 

Im pretty sure my mirrors are stamped with the hagus logo
@Paul Weeding will be able to confirm or deny as my bus is with him

 

I'll have to have a look... but they were genuine when I took them off

 

Lol you tease

It does seem a shame to powdercoat/paint a set of genuine mirrors black
But then again needs must

 

They'll be painted dude... powder coating might muff up the mirrors!!

 

i tink mine are genuine but its dark

 

Yes,

Have seen some with Hagus stamp, but always presumed they were later ones produced as replacements post production? Didn't seem right that VW would have a logo on them from the get go. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Cheers,

 

Wanna swap, I have a genuine mirror from a commercial, they come painted white, but easier to get paint to stick to than shiny ones, I only have one. But I know where there is a nos one
